Maker's bio

Ged first got into green woodworking through renovating his house and garden. He built his own bespoke kitchen from wood and taught himself as he went. He enjoyed it so much he decided he'd like to teach others how to craft beautiful items from natural resources. Ged's interests include hill walking, bird watching, yoga, conservation, environmental issues and northern soul. He's a very calm and encouraging teacher and an all round great human being!

"The course was a Christmas present for my husband, but being curious I joined as well. Ged is a superb teacher and gets every one the help they need. We had lots of fun and I can highly recommend this course for any one who loves Whisky, wood or both."

Gedwood responded:

"Thanks very much Franziska. I'm glad you both enjoyed the day😊"
